COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTIONLionshead Light, a light American lager, is crisp, clean and slightly dry with some residual sweetness. It is lighter in body than our Lionshead. We use the finest American two-row and six-row barley and corn.

Cool puzzles under the cap and a relatively low cost make this a good lawnmower beer or a good party alternative to any BMC. However, the goodness pretty much stops there as it is oversweet and watery.

Bottle rating from backlog notes. Pours a clear pale yellow color with a small white head. The aroma and flavor have grainy, corn malts, grass, pretty much macro mass produced taste, purely a tick. Pretty much the same as the regular version, but thinner, weaker. Meh.

Rated on 4-03-2011 (Bottle) When poured, this beer has a small very, very fizzy white head that quickly dissipates, mostly transparent/slightly hazy yellow body, fizzy, fast rising carbonation, and no lacing. The aroma is grain and some corn. The taste is pale malt and grainy. The mouthfeel is lively carbonation and this beer is medium bodied. This beer is not tasty at all, lacks character and just does not inspire me to recommend or drink again.

Originally reviewed: 1/23/12. A friend of mine gave me a 6-pack of this the other day. Poured the final bottle into a pint glass for review. Pours a pale, translucent gold with fine lace on top. No head or lace left behind on the glass. Nose is of cheap grains and freshly-cut honeycrisp apples. The mouth is crisp and thin. Very light, not surprisingly. Very sweet beer. Light apple juice, mild corn, sweet finish. This drinks like flavored water, and it is refreshing. I’ll give it that. Decent enough to wash down some wings or something, but nothing I’d stock the fridge with on a regular basis.
My favorite part of this beer was the pictorial riddles under each cap. Nice little touch to an otherwise boring beer.
